First Appearance

Pie Man is a superhero alter ago of Homer. He invented the persona when the Rich Texan was taunting Lisa at the county fair.

Homer had been previously warned by the police that he'd go to jail if he committed another assault, so he used a quilt as a cape and an empty pie tin with eye and mouth holes cut out for a disguise to avoid recognition.

He then hit the Rich Texan in the face with a pie to humiliate him. From that point on, Homer dressed up in costume as "Pie Man" and smashed pies in wrongdoers' faces.

During a visit of the Dalai Lama, Homer revealed himself, but nobody believed him, except Marge and Bart. Bart later acted as his sidekick, as "Cupcake Kid". Pie Man appears in the opening sequence of The Blue and The Gray, along with Cupcake Kid.
